the transformer was ripped out of a jukebox and the tube foot was still on the wires ,it was rated 220VAC so i drove it with that and i do not know why it gave that high voltage but the specs were as if it was in it's origional state....
also its a dual rectifier so i guess that stands for two plates meaning two times 550 volt which is certainly within the limit.

Hi all,
there is a thread called Tubes that should will get interesting if people participate physically.

But for the others including, but not limited to the invisible "TPU elite"

I was out the back paddock the other day and I had a conversation with my horse..I asked him what he thought about the current state of things .this is what I think he said, as i remember it.


Remember that I said, 'We probably would never have developed the TPU without tubes". If all we had to work with was solid state devices then we most likely would have failed"...
This does not mean that you can not use solid state devices it just goes to say that tubes made it a great deal easer for the development.
We did manage to design and develop solid state control devices and we learned several tricks in order to be able to do so.
I really don't see how it would be any easier to develop a TPU today using solid state devices then it was thirty years ago... However, I read where people seem to be proving my statements and measuring strange unexplainable peaks of power greater then the sum of input. I fear however that they will spend a great deal more time perfecting the TPU for ultimate operation then would have been necessary back in the days we developed it originally. However, an engineer who worked on the project with me mentioned that I should just leave them alone because they might just discover an entirely new method of generating power that is not as involved as the basic TPU system we developed.
Perhaps he will prove to be right...

At that point the horse stopped speaking, but What would a horse know anyway?

good hunting, whatever your methods

I wish my horse could talk.

lindsay im glad to hear the horse still talks cuz with out talking horses where would we be and.... without dreamers where would we be ?

please all do expect the most of me cuz i will come through tubes are the way to understand the tpu i will play with real power but i must be sure all is well first must understand tubes b4 i play with them and im in the process of learning as we all are

dont think i just run my mouth cuz i will show other wise but in the right time when i feel im ready to play with fire cuz it is fire you know and i dont wanna get burned do you ?


must learn all i can first to be safe

Didn't that 6BQ7-A of yours have a six point three volt heater? 
I would love to play with that but unfortunatly i don't have any....
oh well guess i will have to go with what i got
